I used to be like that a few years ago... Then I became best friends with this girl who is really loud and outgoing and loves to embarrass me (jokingly, of course.) Now I've been publicly humiliated so many times that I don't care about what people think of me anymore and my anxiety is substantially lessened. So I guess what I'm trying to say is find someone to hang out with that doesn't care about what people think, have fun and act as retarded as you want. It'll eventually effect how you act overall.

I do have an exact equal best friend.. Which is the only person I can talk to with out like.. Stammering and being all quiet.. But my friend and I both can't talk to anyone else but each other. And it's going to extremes kinda, because well like.. We aren't gonna go to high school, we're going to do online home schooling, unless our anxiety clears up.. Yeah.

Well, I meant to say my brother went to an alternative school for people with anxiety and other social issues instead of middle school a few years ago because of his anxiety, and while he was there his anxiety and depression worsened. Then, he decided to go to the public high school and felt a lot better about himself. You would think high school would make you more anxious, but it's not always the case. High school is where teenagers learn social skills, therefore I believe I'd you have poor social skills it's exactly where you need to go even though it may seem like it would be hell. I would advise you to talk to a psychologist about your problems if you haven't already, and ask for their professional opinion on the matter.

I think maybe try to talk to people who you think will you can fit in with by being yourself, not those "populars". When you see a group of kids that you think you would become friends with if you weren't so shy, take that chance. Go up to them and don't even think about this, just say hi. I am personally not the best with friends either but that's mainly because my school is literally only sluts, and assholes. If your school is like that then I think you should go to public high school and try what I said. High schools are different.

@Breezy.💕 Yea also, my anxiety lessened from middle school to high school because my high school had more of a variety of people who were more accepting and calmer than in middle school. Also, it's a new school so not everyone knows who you are, therefore you can become a whole new person.

I know, I used to have anxiety and I used to be shy as well. Until I did the "hi" thing. Yeah, but that just made me realize that the people in my school are sluts and assholes (as I said before). Bigger ones then I thought at first. Anyways if it ends up like that for you stick to your best friend until you reach high school, then you can look and do that hi thing again ☺️

@Breezy.💕I used to have anxiety and was shy until I was publicly humiliated by myself and my friends until I didn't care...l in math class I say the dumbest things to the entire class to loosen up. My teacher asked the class recently if anything new happened and I announced to everyone in response "Some delinquents smoked a joint on my bus" XD the whole class stared at me like "what the hell is wrong with her" and I just sat there laughing.

@💕Mel💕😎Haha thanks! I'm only weird in that class because my classmates are either juniors (I'm a sophomore) or my friends so I don't care what they think. Plus my teacher is pretty young and thinks I'm cool so he doesn't care what I say... although that surprised him haha he was just like (O.o) uhhhhhhh and didn't know what to say

@Breezy.💕In my opinion, having anxiety is a reason to go to high school. You need the social experience. But, if your anxiety is as bad as you claim it is, you should talk to a social worker or psychologist about it and get a professional opinion.
